I’m a licensed agent in multiple states (my Arizona license number’s on file if you need it), and while I’m not your attorney or accountant, I’ve seen more real deals than I can count.

To apply cost segregation to your 2024 taxes, you need to do it at any time before you file your taxes, not before the New Year's champagne toast.

Income tax refund (forced savings account where govt keeps your interest) gives them the cash they need for first month's rent + security deposit.10) Realities of S8: most tenants no longer have 100% of rent paid by the program.- Good luck getting them to pay their portion for the duration of their lease- Be careful including utilities in the rent as they then won't care about a running toilet resulting in a $500 water bill.- S8 tenants don['t want to pay application fees- S8 tenants cry broke about paying security deposits- S8 tenants in the program for 10+ years claim ignoreance on filling out their paperwork because they've learned a desperate landlord will do it for them.If you want a S8 tenant, you MUST advertise on www.AffordableHousing.com

@Meena MallikFrom my experience, securing financing for commercial real estate involves understanding your options, such as conventional loans, commercial loans, private lenders, or partnerships.

A friend of mine rented her property near a base and connected with military housing officers at the Family Support Center, which helped secure steady tenants.

If these things weren't disclosed that could be an issue.Did you work with a licensed insurance agent to secure coverage?  

I think PG&E actually filed bankruptcy from that.

That includes going to the bank and getting a cashiers check.Pay them at the bank, get deed notarized there, then take it to Register of Deeds and file deed.I have done this a half dozen times to keep from missing out on a great deal.For what I'm paying any risk is negligible.  

With the income issue, there are screening systems available that verify income by having applicants securely log in to their payroll provider, which then shares their gross and net income with you.

Finally, be open to slightly remote locations with better cash flow potential over high-appreciation markets.If you’d like help analyzing properties or securing financing, let me know I’d be happy to assist.Best,Drago
